No sport quite like football for gruesome injuries. Almost every game delayed by injured players getting carried off the field. The long term prospects for the sport honestly are questionable.

Kind of insane to think about. And not just CFB, but also high school. Children getting gravely injured playing a game every Friday night and needing major surgery. I don't care how advanced the surgical techniques are now. That kind of stuff stays with you for life. Even if you somehow avoid CTE.

Yep. If they are professionals it's one thing. But kids and college students are hard to watch. My nephew (12) stopped playing three years ago when their youth league had two players taken away in ambulances in a playoff game. Just no point in it.

I enjoy watching the sport but it needs to change somehow.

No pads or helmets. Pure backyard tackle football.
